OS CAMBIOS CLIMÁTICOS DO CUATERNARIO

QUATERNARY CLIMATE CHANGES IN THE O COUREL MOUNTAINS.

THE TRACES OF THE LAST GLACIATION.

The action of glacial ice during the Pleistocene, a geological process that began 2.58 million years ago and ended about 10,000 years ago, is manifested in the glacial remains of the Sierra de O Courel, which are interpreted here taking into account the materials present in the soil and the traces left in the landscape produced by the action of ice.
